Protecting Your PII from an APT via Data-Centric Security

Traditional perimeter security is failing. The risk caused by Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) shows no sign of easing and every business is in its path. One of the richest data targets is the personally identifiable information that affects government personnel, contractors, and our citizens. 

One key ingredient of APTs is obtaining access to privileged user accounts. This fundamental flaw in distributed systems enables attackers to compromise data. Monitoring and detection are critical, but it is also vital to prevent privileged users and their access from being used against your organization to compromise data.

Most organizations don’t even know when they have been targeted. On average, the number of days before detection was over a year: 416 days.
